  • 5 Baseline Conditions
    Morava Corridor Motorway Project Chapter 5: Baseline Conditions 5 BASELINE CONDITIONS This Chapter comprises the collection of baseline data representative of the Study Area covering Area of Influence, which is defined in the following paragraphs, in order to provide a baseline against which the impacts of the Project can be assessed. The baseline takes into account current conditions and those changing conditions (e.g., increasing traffic load on the transportation network and its environmental and social consequences) apparent in the baseline. It takes into consideration other developments in the area which are underway or certain to be initiated in the near future. The baseline description has the following main objectives: to focus on receptors that were identified during scoping phase and further discussed in the ESIA stage as having the potential to be significantly affected by the Project; to describe and where possible quantify their characteristics (nature, condition, quality, extent etc.); to provide data to aid the prediction and evaluation of possible impacts; and to inform judgments about the sensitivity, vulnerability and/or importance of resources/receptors. In the following sections of this Chapter, description of the methodologies (e.g., those applied for ecological surveys meeting the requirements of PS6 of IFC), limitations and results of the data collection, as well as a summary of the baseline conditions are provided. 5.1 Definition of the Area of Influence The Area of Influence (AoI) is an important element in assessing environmental and social impacts of a proposed development since it informs about the physical and/or social extent onto which the assessment should be performed.

  • Flood Emergency Response Project Kraljevo
    FLOOD EMERGENCY RESPONSE PROJECT KRALJEVO INTRODUCTION With funding support awarded by the Serbian Orthodox Metropolitanate of Australia and New Zealand and in cooperation with Red Cross of Kraljevo, International Orthodox Christian Charities – IOCC implemented the flood response program for the flood affected population of four villages in Kraljevo municipality, running from 01st July, 2014 to 30th September, 2014; the project was implemented professionally, completed on time and within the operational budget. The project is fully aligned with IOCC strategic objectives and priorities of the emergency flood response program that IOCC is conducting in Serbia and Republika Srpska – BiH. BACKGROUND Starting May 13, 2014, Serbia and Bosnia and Herzegovina experienced sustained torrential rains - by some estimates several months of average rain fell on the region in less than week - that resulted in the worst floods in at least the last century. Large sections of the Sava River and its major and minor tributaries in the watershed flooded, from the western reaches of northern Bosnia to the confluence with the Danube at Belgrade, and throughout the region flash floods and landslides caused extensive damage to infrastructure, people’s homes and communities. Over seventy people lost their lives, while hundreds of thousands of people were affected by the floods, thousands were evacuated and thousands more were isolated within the flooded areas, cut off from main roads without ready access to drinking water, food, medicine or power. The extent of severity to which people are affected by the flood is different from place to place, and very much depends on local geographic and environmental conditions, and peoples individual losses and damages made on their property.

One could say that he is destined, after making the earth uninhabitable, to destroy himself” Jean Baptiste Lamarck (Zoological Philosophy, 1809). Two centuries after Lamarck recorded these thoughts, it is as if we were only a step away from fulfilling his alarming prophecy. Today, unfortunately, it is possible to state that man’s influence over the environment has never been as intensive, extensive or far-reaching. The explosive, exponential growth of the world’s population, coupled with a rapid depletion of natural resources and incessant accumulation of various pollutants, provides a dramatic warning of the severity of the situation at the beginning of the third millennium.

Cvijic. 62(2) (33-48) Original scientific paper UDC: 913(497.11) DOI: 10.2298/IJGI1202033P THE DIRECTIONS OF REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT OF RAŠKA MUNICIPALITY 1 Ivana Penjišević* * Faculty of Science, University of Priština, Kosovska Mitrovica Received 30 May 2012, reviewed 20 June 2012, accepted 14 August 2012 Abstract: The important natural and human resources situated on the territory of the Raška Municipality, provide a good basis for its regional development. Previous development plans marginalized these resources due to influence of industrialization. Available resources were used in a small scale. The task of this research is to perceive current geographic changes that happen among nature, population, settlements and economy. The perceived changes show complex situation in this area that had not been studied by regional geographers. The aim of this research is to define natural and human directions of development that could provide even regional development of Raška Municipality. Various literature and fieldwork (especially observation and interviews) provided data for this research. The future development plans for Raška Municipality should consider possibilities of agriculture, mining and tourism development. These activities will contribute to the regional development. These activities are also factors of the revitalization of its rural parts. Key words: Raška, natural and human resources, regional development, revitalization Introduction The territory of Raška municipality covers an area of 666 km2. Administratively, it is divided into three urban, three suburban and 55 rural settlements. The municipality is not territorially large, but it has a well-developed network of regional and local roads, significant natural resources and cultural and historical heritage from different historical periods.
